    This is the 20 min review audio of the 3 hour INAGUARATION of the British Bethel that took place few days ago...

    They sure talk about Jehovah's hand a lot!

    Poor Jesus doesn't get so much as a mention.

    To me, after a while they start to sound superstitious and it brought to mind the reminder not to look for omens.

    (KerryKing I mistakenly pressed down on your comment instead of up lol)

    Someone on the You tube comments said when you see the number of girls doing all the construction, allowing them to wear the trousers suddenly makes sense 😂

    What happened to the good old days,

    When girls wore skirts and blouses?

    Now they work construction sites,

    And dress themselves in trousers!

    They make so much fuss about mere buildings.

    They make so much fuss about mere buildings.

    It's fascinating - they talk often about valuing their "spiritual heritage", yet when it suits them, they drop huge areas of their history without a second thought.

    After decades of hype about Brooklyn and Mill Hill, at a stroke those locations are sold off and consigned to history. "Dedicated" facilities are dumped from Jehovah's service and sold off to the highest bidder, even if it's a "worldy" corporation or "false" religious organisation. Yet now, we are expected to rave about Walkill, Warwick, Chelmsford, the coming development at Ramapo, etc.

    Past "Kingdom Songs" - after years of exorting the R&F to learn them by heart, practice them in their spare time and listen to them at home - are silenced forever, never even played as an occasional "nostalgia" playlist or in private "gatherings"

    Previous study publications, while exalted for the numbers of disciples they produce while in use, are removed completely from print and rarely ever spoken of or featured again, except in the occasional "history of the Org" flashback video.

    And of course, when praising faithful pioneers, etc, from past decades, including those still "serving" as elderly ones today, nothing is admitted of the fact that for all those years of preaching and teaching, they were effectively teaching many doctrines that are now considered "false" or "old light".

    JOURNEYMAN:

    Yes, and in addition to the now false ‘old light’ elderly Witnesses were preaching - year after year - the counting of hours/time slips is No longer needed!…I mean they got rid of everything. Imagine that?

    All done away with at the 2023 Annual meeting! ..Many elderly are enduring financial hardships today because they were in the ministry instead of having a job… Does the religion care?
